Stalemate, my ass. The GOP -- and a not insignificant chunk of the Ds -- are the sole property of Fortune 500 companies and the richest 1 percent of the population.
Merry Christmas, America. They don't give a fuck about you, the other 99 percent. They don't care if you live or die.

Today, MAGA Republicans in the Senate blocked the Democratic proposal to fund the tax credits that keep health care affordable for working people.

In America, crimes don’t decide your fate — your bank balance does. If you’re poor, it grinds you into the pavement. Justice isn’t blind — she just charges admission, and only the wealthy can afford the ticket.

He shouldn’t just be pushed out as the House Democrats’ leader; he needs to be primaried out of his seat entirely. Just a complete waste of a deep blue seat.
Jeffries: "The border is secure. That's a good thing. It happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he'll get credit for that. In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration, there's a lot that's left to be desired."

@markhertling.bsky.social warns the gravest threat to the U.S. military is the erosion of the values that keep our forces lawful and legitimate. He implores Congress to investigate whether unlawful orders were issued in the Caribbean, and hold every official to account.

He disabled it a couple hours later when it was revealed how many MAGA accounts aren't in the U.S.
Foreign bot disinformation machines exposed.
Seems like Twitter could have done that feature 15 years ago & we wouldn't be here today.
